If you boil 100g of water should the steam weigh more than 100 grams?

Answer 1

If all the water boils off, the mass of the steam will be 100 grams. Matter cannot be created or destroyed.

Answer 2

When 1 gram of steam at 100 degree centigrade condenses into water at the same temperature, it releases 540 calories of heat while 1 gram of water at 100 degree centigrade loses 1 calorie of heat on cooling. so the 100 grams of steam at 100 degrees C burns more than 100 grams of water at 100 degree C

Answer 3

No. Mass is not created or destroyed. The mass of the steam is equal to the mass of the water

that evaporated to make the steam, so their weights are equal.

Answer 4

The mass of liquid, solid, gas never changes. When 100 grams of water is boiled, the mass of steam is still 100 grams (never changes)

Answer 5

100 g
